The day is nearly upon us, and KPop Demon Hunter dolls from Mattel are about to go on sale. Well, pre-sale, at least. The dolls were announced late last week, and now they are set to go live on Wednesday, November 12, which is tomorrow at the time of this writing.

When Will The KPop Demon Hunter Dolls Be Delivered?
This is the bad news. What you’re looking at are just prototypes, and the actual dolls will not ship until at least October 2026 according to Mattel, in time for next Christmas. So no, not even close to being a gift for this Christmas, and don’t go into this thinking that’s going to be the case.
This is going to be a scramble, and there is a high chance that this purchase frenzy is going to be infected with scalpers and the bots they use. Maybe there are protections in place to avoid that, but it’s inevitable. Even if that wasn’t the case, these are probably going to sell out instantly, no matter how many pre-orders Mattel has allotted for, so don’t be disappointed if that happens. Down the road here there is going to be a mountain of KPop Demon Hunters merchandise including dolls like this. The problem here is that the movie exploded over the summer, and the way design and manufacturing works on these things means that you cannot rush out too many products, and definitely not ones like this.
So, noon tomorrow if you’re in my time zone in the US. Track that Mattel countdown timer.
